I moved into glebe str as I was desperate for a flat. I was initially informed that the rent goes up every 6 months. I had to walk past ppl injecting drugs/ smoking crack in the hall way. I even had to open the front door for ambulance services for someone that overdosed in the hallway. I could not afford to move.After 18 months I got a letter asking me for hundreds of pounds which I owed due to the 6 month rent increase. I said that I never received letters informing me of the increase and the reply I got was "we haven't got time to inform everyone of rent increases". I had mould issues, broken taps, doors with big holes in from previous tenants. I asked for these issues to be resolved but to no avail. We had homeless people sleeping on mattresses in the fire escape. Blood splatter over the walls too. I had to take a loan out to move. Parmars preys on vulnerable people that have no other options.......

This estate agency is honestly the worst!! Do NOT. I am begging you do not rent with them. The manager mr Parmas is disturbed. He is demonic, he is so nasty and rude and some of his worker follow suit. He lies about rent owed when you have evidence. He shouts at you when you go to have an honest ... Read Full Review

Crooks and criminals.

This estate agent has given us such a hard time during our tenancy experience. From ignoring our calls and emails to demanding money from us. Rather than sorting out the issues and contacting us directly, the main man is the least bit bothered about getting in touch with his clients. He never seems ... Read Full Review


What agent could do to change your mind?

The agents could have been more approachable, more understanding towards students, be more available. The new lady at the front desk was not approachable. The lady previous to her (Bhavna) was actually very helpful and would help us as much as she could with other issues such as maintenance problems. She would always push our messages towards the main man and at least try to give us reasonable responses with clear messages rather than being ignorant.


Comments on Agent Fees

Too pricey for student living. They required over £700 for deposit whereas other student lettings agents required a maximum of £400. On top of that they would make us sign up for insurance for £60 for which they never gave us any details or information.

The landlord claimed that I owed them a month's rent because I had not notified them in writing of my intention to end the tenancy. I sent a dispute to the Tenancy Deposit Scheme and I won because there is no legal requirement to give notice in a fixed term contract. Be aware that there is a clause ... Read Full Review
